The reason he lost "Politically Incorrect" was because ABC/Disney received a ton of heat for his 9-11 remarks where one of his guests made a remark that the terrorists were cowards, and he said the U.S. was because we kick back and launch our bombs at (fill in country of the moment).

A lot of advertisers pulled their ad spots, and Disney/ABC received so much heat over it, they cancelled him. He then moved over to the old Dennis Miller spot on HBO.

Personally, I enjoy the HBO show (Real Time) a lot more than Politically Incorrect when both on ABC/Comedy Central. In 30 minutes he barely had a chance to get into issues because there was a lot of fighting or talking over one another.
